Happy Holidays to you!

I'm trying to finish the middle book in the Demon Cycle series before it gets snatched off my Kobo by the library in 3 days! Still have so much to go. I suppose I can just re-borrow it if I have to!

Are you enjoying it? I might have to look that series up!

I love it, but it's quite a genre read.

It's about creatures ("demons") that come out at night so people (in this middle ages type setting) have to hide behind magical symbols that repel them to avoid getting eaten. But two separate individuals have discovered that there are also lost 'fighting' wards that allow them to fight back against the creatures. I am totally caught up in the story. The world building is excellent!

I found it at my library (the first book is called The Warded Man) so maybe check yours if you decided to try it out. :)

Nice

I'm finishing up Jade City by Fonda Lee for the Popsugar Challenge and I have some arcs I need to get to

I just finished One Dog at a Time by Pen Farthing. It's going in the "giving" square, though I, unfortunately, didn't fill them all.

Hope your Christmas is merry and filled with joy!

I need to read that one! Hope you had a lovely Christmas!

It's a truly inspiring story. I think you'd enjoy it. And Christmas was grand!

I've heard good things about your book. I will have to see if I can get my hands on it.

I'm trying to finish up a biography called Beatrix Potter: a life in Nature by Linda Lear before the year is up.

That sounds like a good one too!

It was really good although it also was a very through deep dive into her life. I am glad I read it.

Merry belated Christmas!

I'm trying to finish 56 Days by Catherine Ryan Howard. It's been good, but my life is chaos at the moment so I'm not getting any reading time.

I hope it's a good choas!!

We're doing some remodeling on the house, so yes, definitely good chaos!

Yay!

I agree. I thought it was such a lovely book. Even if you think inspirational type books are a bit twee it's worth a flick though the illustrations!

I think this would resonate with a lot of people even if they thought at first it was a bit twee. Those are the people who probably need it the most!

I agree!

I love that art, I didn't know there was a book!

I am in the middle of Aquanaut, by Rick Stanton. Incredible book.

Happy holidays to you! X

I'm so glad you're reading an incredible book. Those are the best kinds!

Belated merry Christmas, and just in time happy new year to everyone at book bingo. May 2022 be full of good books and exciting new book/author/genre discoveries.

I'm technically between books at the moment. My last book a couple of weeks ago was The Long Call by Ann Cleeves, which is the first book in a new series about detective Matthew Venn. The next book on my to read pile (hopefully over the new year weekend) is The Heron's Cry, which is the *second* book in the Matthew Venn series. I feel I may have discovered a shiny new obsession... :-)

Ohhh I love book obsessions!! Have fun with your new one!
